Danny was a great friend and classmate. I have many fond memories...He will be missed very much. We enjoyed being on the same basketball team in high school and involved in the FFA and being in the same class for 12 years and even in college later. May God Bless you and comfort in this time. It is great comfort to know we will see Danny again when we get to heaven.
